CASTLEVANIA: LORDS OF SHADOW ARTICLES

October 9, 2008 - Konami held a press event for the Castlevania series today in its booth at the Tokyo Game show. The big news to come from the event, as reported by ITmedia, was first word on a new entry in the series for a brand new set of platforms: the PS3 and Xbox 360.

August 20, 2008 - At the German Games Convention in Leipzig, Konami saved a special surprise for last in their press conference. At the end of their presentation, a teaser trailer for a mysterious title known as Lords of Shadow was revealed, which depicted a man in armor kneeling in front of a cross in a church. While he appeared to be saying prayers, a gigantic orc-like being ripped its way through the roof and screamed at him. Noticing the interruption, the man reached for the hilt of a weapon and a whip made out of chain emerged. Setting the chain on fire, he swung the chain towards the monster. After a logo screen appeared, the chain retracted its way into the hilt and the teaser ended.

September 25, 2005 - Konami is currently planning a next generation development for Castlevania series, series producer Iga (just Iga) has revealed. Continuing the current setup of the series, where portable entries depict a post-Dracula world and console entries depict a world prior to Dracula's fall, next generation console titles in the series will have the latter setting.
